European Government Websites 'Fail the Disabled'
Almost every government website in Europe fails to meet basic standards for accessibility, a study shows.
The report by the UK Cabinet Office found that 97% of official sites were unusable by disabled people, largely because they ignored well-known techniques for making data accessible.
This is despite attempts by governments to put more services online.
The study found that the best stimulus to making sites accessible were legal penalties for non-compliance.
